The important bit of information is that this is a IRQ-multiplexer and
such it must not be threaded. Otherwise its child-interrupts would be
invoked from the thread handler which is not desired.
This is noticed by PREEMPT_RT but also on a non-PREEMPT_RT kernel where
`threadirqs' has been used.

Side note: Using request_irq() has the side effect that this interrupt
pops-up in /proc/interrupts and the "child-interrupt", too. So you
account two interrupts while "one" on the HW side occurred. 
Maybe irq_set_chained_handler_and_data() would be better use.
Either way, this addresses the problem,
